Truer words were never written than this post on Twitter/X:
Politicians posting grilling photos just never works out well
— Damin Toell (@damintoell) June 17, 2024
No, they don’t. They really don’t.
Chuck Schumer tried his best to seem like one of the guys by posting this picture of him grilling various kinds of food for Farter’s Day Father’s Day …
… with the caption:
Our family has lived in an apartment building for all our years, but my daughter and her wife just bought a house with a backyard and for the first time we’re having a barbecue with hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill!
Father’s Day Heaven!
Just a regular guy! Except some people noticed problems in that picture and apparently he got ratioed so hard, he deleted the post.
But we are good enough with our Twitter/X skills that we can capture a great deal of the responses, despite the deletion. We’re not sure how it will look when published, but each of these posts are either replying to him, or quote posting his original post:
You haven’t grilled or even made a burger in your life have you now buddy? https://t.co/UEcWSdPXUY

Look how relatable we are to the common American! Look! We even put cheese on our raw patties! Look! Just like you people!

Even we threw in our two cents:
Everyone is making fun of your fake grilling but I’m more distracted by your man-boobs… https://t.co/ZVfm7hobDM

In fact, several people were distracted:
Cheese on a raw patty on an unlit grill… nice tits btw https://t.co/LbqFhE2kmJ

One of my favorite things on social media is politicians posting horrific food photos. This vaults into the Top 3. It doesn't beat the iconic MTG Thanksgiving Turkey photo, but it's really close. A piece of cheese on a raw burger next to splitting hotdogs made me laugh out… https://t.co/tklbx473eN

“Sir we need you to relate to normal people”

“What do normal people do?”
“I don’t know, put some cheese on that raw burger you literally just put down”
“Great idea, look how normal I look.”
Psycho https://t.co/mvcWU9d6sj
Raw burger and cheese? Maybe you would like to wash it down with a fake beer. 😆 https://t.co/ihgkx8iIBQ pic.twitter.com/Aw1OjUvRpt

Scary that a person at the top of our government has no clue how to bbq a cheeseburger but knows just how to rule your life. https://t.co/TH1SRLDoSw

Actually, this author will share a trick we do. We actually take the raw ground beef and mix Dijon mustard directly into the meat, as well as various spices. It gives the burgers a very tangy flavor.
On the other hand, this author’s wife likes to simply mix A-1 Steak Sauce into the meat.
Try both and see what you like.
I’d buy a coffee table book of politicians pretending to grill https://t.co/0vjOP0V2ua

Let’s face it, any picture is made funnier with an image of Joe Biden sniffing someone photoshopped in.
Joe was probably drawn in by the man-bewbs.
I just don’t understand how smart people can do such dumb things.

You don’t put the cheese on top of raw burgers, you fraud. You put the cheese on after the burgers are cooked. pic.twitter.com/WXMIymHVnG

And more than a few people noticed when Schumer deleted the post.

It even caught the attention of former senior advisor for policy and White House director of speechwriting to President Donald Trump, Stephen Miller:

Congrats everybody! We bullied Chuck Schumer so hard for being a bad outdoor cook that he was forced to delete his tweet!

We would dispute that definition of bullying. Making fun of a person and/or pointing out their mistakes is not bullying. Bullying, in our book, requires either violence or violent threats.
Okay how do we translate federal fiscal policy into burgers and cheese so he can understand his job better
— James Eldridge 🌴🪼 (@vancomycin87) June 17, 2024
Judging by that photo, that will not help him. A better plan is to translate it into something he actually understands, but we have no idea what that something would be.
Chuck Schumer just deleted this post where he got insanely ratioed for not knowing how to make a cheeseburger.

Chuck Schumer is one of the most powerful men in America.
— Mrgunsngear (@Mrgunsngear) June 17, 2024
He has no idea how to do basic male tasks like run a grill. Granted, he says he's new to it here but It'd bet a lot of money several family members and staffers saw this post before he posted it. Also, someone… pic.twitter.com/MSb4nFD3sb
The cut off text reads:
Also, someone took this photo. None of them thought putting cheese on a raw patty was odd. That's the type of company & advisors this man surrounds himself with.
He also wants to take your guns away from you. It's pretty safe to say he knows about as much about guns, gun use, self defense, ballistics, etc... as he does about grilling.
That is all...

All this pouncing is really tough on our calves.
It even got the satire treatment, already:
